Overview
This guide illustrates the setup and usage of the sensor DS35 from Sick.
Sensor DS35
This sensor measures the distance between the sensor surface and the object in front of that surface. The measurable distance is in the range of 0 to 35m. Different values can be transmitted: e.g. vendor name, product name, serial number, measured value. A red light is emitted to show what is being measured.
Fields of applications
- Positioning or anti-collision monitoring of shuttles, industrial trucks, gantry cranes and traversing carriages
- Reliable measurement and detection of extremely dark or glossy materials, e.g., in the automotive industry
- Loading, empty bay or fill level monitoring in logistics applications
- Measurement and detection of small objects at long distances, for example in manufacturing industries
